STUTTGART

Catholic bishops in the United States have called for a Fortnight for Freedom, a two-week period of prayer and action, to address many current challenges to religious liberty.

Holy Rosary Catholic Church in Stuttgart will participate in the event by hosting several activities over the next two weeks.

Opening Day will be held Friday with the Rosary prayed at 5:45 p.m., followed by at 6 p.m. Mass celebrating St. Thomas Moore and St. John Fisher. Reflections and discussion will follow Mass in the parish hall.

Mass will be held at its regularly-scheduled time at 5:30 p.m. Saturday with reflections and discussion to follow in the parish hall.

The regular Mass schedule will also be followed on Sunday with the addition of reflections/discussion at 6 p.m. in the parish hall, followed by the movies “A Man for All Seasons” (about the martyrdom of St. Thomas Moore, patron of religious freedom) and “For Greater Glory” (about the struggle for religious freedoms in Mexico) with popcorn and sodas.

On weekdays, the Rosary will be prayed at 5:45 p.m. with Mass at 6 p.m., followed by reflections and discussion in the parish hall.

On Closing Day, July 4, the Rosary will be prayed at 5:45 p.m., followed by a 6 p.m. Mass and reflections and discussion in the parish hall.
